No reason for sore tailbone!!

[carmineqqe]

I have a sore tailbone only when I press on it and certain ways that I sit. I have had no trauma to it or any reason to explain why it sore. So now I start thinking that maybe it is something very serious such as cancer or something like that. Does anyone have any ideas why it would all of a sudden be tender? Thanks so much in advance.

Oo! Nasty!

Cancer is normally painless until it reaches the mid to later stages and you'd certainly be in no doubt about what it was. Since this is a painful site, it might be something entirely innocent.

If it doesn't clear up, have a check up with your doctor or chiropractor.

Love,

Hi

I have had tailbone problems for several yars now, and know how miserable it makes you feel. And mine can be absolute agony to the touch, too.

My chiropractor and physio both said that it's actually the pelvis that is to blame, as if that is crooked, it will pull both the sacrum and coccyx out with it. I used to cycle a lot which my chirp thought was the origin of it all.

So yes, I suggest you see a chiropractor for starters and go from there, but don't panic!!

After some physio, and doing regular strengthening exercises, mine is now loads better.

best wishes,

Memphis

Thank you for the replies. I work in a hospital so I think I tend to panic over alot things. I feel perfectly fine other than a touchy tailbone. I hope everything is ok. I see the doc on Mon. Thanks again.
